My soil is full of clumps of clay and I'm wondering if this is the answer. Any issues with using it?

I just planted a bunch of driller Diakon Radishes in my front yard to do some biological tillage on all of my clay soil.
Lots of info on YouTube about doing this.
I plan to leave most of them in the ground to compost, but I plan to pull some for eating.
The cool thing about them is that pull needed nutrients from deep underground.
This is what I bought: https://meritseed.com/driller-daikon-radish-annual/
Just thinking of the shape of Daikon radishes, this might work even better than the potato version, which is pretty great.
That sounds very promising, thanks for the info!
